    Something about jujutsu?...Oh nah...OH NO
    As the F-16 climbed towards the Super Hornet, the hornet asked, "if you were to dogfight me, would you win?"
    The F-16 smirked and said, "If you used your near instant turn to shoot at me, I might have a little trouble"
    The Hornet pressed further, questioning the Viper, "But would you lose?"
    The Viper responded saying..."Nah I'd Turn"
    The Viper continued, saying "Throughout heaven and airfields, I alone am the exception for I hold the title of the strongest turn rate"

    I happen to know a guy that’s flown both the legacy hornet and f-16 on squadron. His assessment of the probability of victory between hornet and viper was viper wins 70% of the time, all else equal.

    • @kurtisb100
      @kurtisb100 9 месяцев назад +8

      @@nitonono4143 look, I’m just regurgitating what the guy who actually flew them told me; but that was only as regards BFM. As far as I know, in BVR it’s much more complicated than that. What generation of systems are being used is a much bigger factor than which airframe they are attached to. Basically, if we are comparing a current FA-18F to a 1980s F-16 the viper is going to be in big trouble in BVR. That said, literally nothing more than his assessment of the BFM probability was told to me. He won’t say anything: literally anything about what systems are in any of the jets he flew. Not missiles, radars, nothing. So beyond his basic opinion (based in his experience in both jets) of the BFM fight I have no insight into what would happen if a hornet fought a viper. And I think it’s reasonable to say that, unless you’re privy to secret information about fighter capabilities you can’t really have an informed opinion either. You can read everything published and all you will have are a large collection of assumptions about what the capabilities are.
